“You can win as long as you don't give up”
Martin Needelmann,
Lawyer,
Brooklyn Legal Services Corp. A
Thousends of working class New Yorkers are violently pushed out of their homes and made homeless.
​
When landlords want to raise rents or demolish buildings to make way for pricey new developments illegally withhold basic services like heat and hot water, or offer paltry buyouts or denyes repairs. At the Housing Court Judges witness this unfairness all the time, but there’s little they can do about it. In Brooklyn, South Williamsburg aka «Los Sures» the community has developed his own «Method» to fight back. And win.
